GMK Terror has emerged from the mind of Psyoshi just in time for the spooky month. Inspired by pulp horror legends from both film and print, these deskmats pay homage to the fear of things that go bump in the night that we rationalize for our entertainment.

Two deskmats are available for GMK Terror: the “Welcome to Terrorville” deskmat designed by Inputuniverse, and the “Skulls” deskmat designed by Psyoshi!

“This beautiful deskmat designed by Inputuniverse captures my vision of a sequel that never came to one of my favorite books growing up. After having just escaped death, the main characters are told by their “saviors” they are not headed for sanctuary as they hoped. Instead to a monster hotspot known as Terrorville. So I bring you to Terrorville with me, where the monster stars of old all reside. I hope you enjoy this fun exploratory accent to your setup as much as I did dreaming it up.”
– Psyoshi, on the “Welcome to Terrorville” deskmat

“A step away from the wild side to bring GMK Terror and your keyboard front and centre. The Skullmat is a more subtle patterned deskmat, sure to delight the senses. So whether you want an adventure or to sink into the feeling of Terror, I got you covered.”
– Psyoshi, on the “Skulls” deskmat

“We recently teamed up with a talented crew of kindergarten students to design the most blindingly colourful set yet.” – Plop

ePBT Ping‘s design evokes the minimalist iconography and soft-edged aesthetics of the modern desktop OS with a splash of vibrant colour, and is the latest keycap set from the talented folk down at Plop Labs.

For millennia, Evil Eye charms have been used to ward off negative energy and malicious spirits. GMK Evil Eye pays homage to the world-renowned symbol, inspired by the designer’s Greek upbringing.

In keeping with the set’s origins, GMK Evil Eye’s base kit features black-on-white alphas with Greek sublegends, and further includes novelties, numpad, and Alice support, ensuring that a wide variety of boards will be covered by default. Additionally, this project utilizes a pleasing palette of GMK stock colours, reducing the production cost and alleviating concerns over colour-matching.

With an aesthetic inspired by charred wood, fire and volcanic rock, GMK Cinder‘s orange alphas burn like embers against the ashen grey base color and dark grey modifier legends.

GMK Cinder offers two base kits – a hiragana kit that adds visual interest through Japanese sublegends, and a Latin base kit that maintains a classic look. Both kits offer compatibility for most common layouts like Full Size, TKL, and 60%, and also include Alice B, 40s, and F13 keys, with further support available in the form of the spacebar kit. The novelties kit features custom artwork that links the fiery theme and dark base colour, and alludes to the soul of the set.

Created by Reebes and their fiancée, KBM Love Detective is themed after a particular character – a favourite of the couple’s, from one of their favourite shows! The set’s primary colours were, of course, inspired by this mysterious Love Detective’s bright pink hair! Complimentary colours with warmer undertones were chosen to convey the warmth required of L.D.s in their trade, while still aiming to stay true to the source of the set’s inspiration, resulting in a “peachy coral-y soft orange-y colour” being used for the legends on the cream alphas and as the base colour for the set’s various accent keys.

Strike a myriad of poses with the Dance Time deskmat design or enjoy the repeating pattern featuring iconography from the novelties kit!

Step into the hypothetical with DMK ЯUBBER, a keycap set that takes its theme from a fictional 1920’s where rubber hose animation was born in the newly-formed Soviet Union instead of the United States. This set is the brainchild of Manu from ELOQUENTCLICKS, who designed its vintage colourway, and features novelties designed by the talented Okami!

DMK ЯUBBER deskmats feature a textured surface, increasing mouse friction and giving you finer control over your cursor. Choose from three designs in a total of five colourways – show your support for the worker with Agriculture and Industry, find new friends with Comrade, or keep it simple with the patterned Marxmat, available in three colour configurations.

GMK Blot takes its name from blót, the Old Norse term for a blood sacrifice – a spectacle in which animals were ritually slaughtered, their blood poured into bowls, spread across stones, and sprayed upon nearby buildings and onlookers. The remains of the slaughtered animals would be cooked and feasted upon, accompanied by toasts of consecrated ale or mead to the glory of the gods. The blót was sacred to the Old Norse people, and was an important pillar of their religious practices; the sacrifices given as a gift to their deities in exchange for victory in battle, bountiful harvests, lasting peace, and many other types of favour.

The deskmats for GMK Blot are in keeping with the theme of this ancient custom. “Altar” depicts the Ægishjálmr – the “Helm of Awe” – a symbol said to grant a sphere of protection, often drawn upon the body or shield with blood to strike fear into the hearts of one’s enemies, as well as a pair of Jellinge-style goats being pierced by swords. “Blood Ritual” on the other hand shows a blót in progress, the keycap-shaped ritual stones soaked crimson with the blood of sacrifices, illustrated by stylish pixel art.

GMK Underworld takes its inspiration from a popular mobile game’s depiction of the Sumerian underworld goddess, adapting her colour palette to a striking red-on-black keycap set with gold accents and hiragana sublegends.

Underworld’s deskmat depicts a scene from the goddess’ final attack – a chasm floor erupting with pillars of brightly-coloured energy!
